Carson did the Tonight Show from 1962 to 1992, and pretty much defined what late night talk shows would be.
About every comedian you've ever heard of got his start on the Tonight Show.
His last guest was Bette Midler, who said of him today, "He had a little bit of devil, a whole lot of angel, and great class."
